Chapter 395: There is a problem with the broken toe
Song Ruilong said: "Good sentence of poor discipline!" Do you want to hear what Liu Zheng said? ”
Liu Zheng walked to the court from a corner, and after kowtowing to Song Ruilong, he said, "My lord, the words of Master Cao Zhuang, the people have heard it." Xiaomin just wants to say that Xiaomin is blind and follows the wrong master. Xiaomin really listened to it, it was Cao Yunxuan who instructed us to beat Liu Zhengxiang to death that night, and it was also Cao Yunxuan who said that he would throw the killed Liu Zhengxiang into Andinghe. ”
Cao Yunxuan glared at Liu Zheng and said, "Liu Zheng, you conscienceless thing, how do I usually treat you, you are talking nonsense here."
Liu Zheng said very seriously: "Master Cao, I didn't talk nonsense, you said this to the minions, you usually teach us not to lie about anything, to tell the truth, the little ones do what the master orders."
Cao Yunxuan wanted to vomit blood angrily, and said, "You pedantic thing, how can I make you my housekeeper?"
Song Ruilong said: "Isn't Master Cao Zhuang unhappy with such an obedient servant? Now that your servant has confessed, what more do you have to say? ”
Cao Yunxuan hung his head and said, "Xiaomin has nothing to say."
Song Ruilong was shocked and said: "The case of Cao Yunxuan instructing his subordinates to beat Liu Zhengxiang to death will be tried here first, and then we will try the case of Wu Xiaoyun's murder in the first instance."
Song Ruilong looked at Wei Bixiao and said, "Bixiao, call Cao Xiaotian, Jiang Zhilong and Zhao Guangsheng to the hall."
Song Ruilong asked Cao Yunxuan, Li Lingxia and others to kneel on the side first, and let Cao Xiaotian and others kneel in the middle of the court.
After Cao Xiaotian saw Cao Yunxuan, he said, "Dad." You save the child, the child doesn't want to die. ”
Cao Yunxuan knelt on the side and said, "Tian'er, Dad can't take care of you in the future, you have to take care of yourself."
Song Ruilong patted Tang Tang Mu and glared at Cao Xiaotian. Said: "Cao Xiaotian, this county asks you, where were you on the night of June 26th?"
Cao Xiaotian trembled and said: "Xiaomin, Xiaomin was eating wine at Xinyue Inn, and Wang Tai and Zhou Kui, who were under Xiaomin at that time, could testify."
Song Ruilong said: "Pass Wang Tai and Zhou Kui to the court to reply."
Wang Tai Zhou Kui was standing among those people, and after hearing Song Ruilong's words, they squeezed through the crowd and went to the public court.
The two knelt down for Song Ruilong, and after seeing the salute, Song Ruilong said: "You two must answer truthfully." On the night of June 26, where was your young master? ”
Wang Tai said: "That night, my son-in-law was drinking at the Xinyue Inn. My son-in-law was bored and called Zhao Guangsheng to gamble. Zhao Guangsheng asked my son-in-law to guess whether his toes were odd or even when he was twenty-five years old, but my son-in-law said that his toes were even when he was twenty-five years old, so Zhao Guangsheng took off his shoes on the spot and cut off one of his toes with the dagger he carried. He said. He himself will be twenty-four years old this year, and he will be twenty-five next year. The toes are odd. My son-in-law lost, so he lost the mansion to Zhao Guangsheng. Zhao Guangsheng moved in that night. ”
Song Ruilong was a little skeptical: "Are you telling the truth?"
Wang Tai said affirmatively: "Of course it's true." If you don't believe it, the adult can let Zhao Guangsheng take off his shoes and take a look. ”
After Song Ruilong asked Zhao Guangsheng to take off his shoes, everyone saw Zhao Guangsheng's broken toe. The little toe of his right foot was indeed broken. Many people thought that Wang Tai was not lying.
Wang Baoquan looked at the toe and said to Song Ruilong, "My lord." Zhao Guangsheng has a problem with his broken toe. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, many people were shocked.
Song Ruilong felt that there was no problem with Zhao Guangsheng's words, so when he heard Wang Baoquan say that there was a problem with his broken toe, he was indeed very surprised.
Song Ruilong looked at Wang Baoquan and said, "Tell me what's wrong with his broken toe?"
Wang Baoquan said: "My lord." Zhao Guangsheng's toe was not broken on the night of three days ago, but on the night of seven days ago. ”
After Zhao Guangsheng listened to Wang Baoquan's words, his face changed greatly, and even Cao Xiaotian wanted to jump up from the ground.
Song Ruilong said lightly: "Go on, how did Zhao Guangsheng's toe break?"
Wang Baoquan said even more energetically: "Back to the adult, Zhao Guangsheng's toe was broken one night seven days ago, when he was betting with Xiaomin. At that time, Zhao Guangsheng had just come out of Yunqi Gambling House, and looking at his gray appearance, Xiaomin knew that he must have lost money, and Xiaomin planned to go up to say hello to him, and humiliate him by the way, because Xiaomin was not in a good mood at that time. Xiaomin's wife and Cao Yunxuan got involved in the Xinyue Inn again. Xiao Min said to let him make a riddle, if Xiao Min guessed correctly, Zhao Guangsheng would call Xiao Min a grandfather, if Xiao Min guessed wrong, Xiao Min would lose to Zhao Guangsheng a hundred taels of silver. ”
At that time, Zhao Guangsheng asked Xiao Min to guess whether his toes were odd or even when he was twenty-five years old, and Xiao Min guessed that his toes were even, so Zhao Guangsheng chopped off his little toe with the dagger he carried with him on the spot, and the bloody toes made Xiao Min tremble, and the little one gave him a hundred taels of silver at that time. So Zhao Guangsheng's toe was not broken three days ago at all, he was lying. ”
Song Ruilong glared at Zhao Guangsheng, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Zhao Guangsheng, it's time for you to tell the truth." Look at the guy kneeling next to you, he can't help you with anything now, he's just a dying man, what are you afraid of him for? Since you love your wife so much, why don't you dare to say a few conscientious words for her and let the murderer be punished? ”
Zhao Guangsheng said bitterly: "My lord, Xiaomin said. It is true that Xiaomin's toe was not broken three days ago, but seven days ago, how did it break? is the reason that Wang Baoquan just said. ”
Song Ruilong said: "Why did you tell the county that your toe was broken one night three days ago?"
Zhao Guangsheng said helplessly: "It's all because of the greed of the people." Xiaomin lost all his money that night, went home without a face, and drank wine at the Xinyue Inn with Cao Xiaotian's henchman Wang Tai for a night. When Xiaomin learned that his wife was killed, he called his friend Lu Feng to his home. Lu Feng believed that Xiaomin's wife was killed by others, and called Xiaomin to report to the official, but Xiaomin was caught by Cao Xiaotian's men in his mansion before he could get out of the red flower set. Cao Xiaotian stuck a knife on the table in front of Xiao Min, saying that as long as Xiao Min did what he said, the mansion would be Xiao Min's, in addition, Cao Xiaotian was also willing to give Xiao Min 10,000 taels of silver, Xiao Min was obsessed, and he was afraid that Cao Xiaotian would be killed if he didn't do it, so he went against his conscience and came up with the idea of betting on chopping off his toes for Cao Xiaotian.
